Should You Micro-Manage Your AdWords Campaign?
You find the ads everywhere, stories of folks who use Adwords to market their product and make 100’s of dollars of profits and they only work a few hours a day. They want to convince you that this is a common situation and it can be your situation too, making 100’s/day just by booting up your computer.
The thing that they are not saying is that working only a few hours a day when you are running an internet marketing campaign is not common at all, especially for someone who doesn’t have his advertising plan already in motion and is still trying to settle on a niche to pursue. Adwords campaign management requires plenty of micro management.
Consider this.
On top of your to do list is going to Googles database and getting the popular search terms that relate to your topic from the latest search data.
Then you need to write down as many keywords that are relevant to your product/service and then compare them to Google’s list. (You can do this simply by thinking of what you would enter in a search engine if you were looking for your product/service on the internet.)
After you have your keyword list as you want it, you need to decide what you are going to bid on them. No you aren’t going to contact Google and tell them you will pay so much money for getting to use the keyword in the ads and such for your campaign and have google contact you and say ‘yes’ or ‘no’. That is just crazy.
Instead, Google uses the policy that the ad that appears first in the list is going to be the one seen the most often and generate the greatest amount of profits to secure their own profit.
Google Adwords is a pay per click set up. In other words an advertiser (you) are required to pay a small amount of money whenever there is a click on his ad taking a searcher to his website. There is no surety of there being a sale.
An ad that is more frequently selected by searchers will bring more profit for google. That is why they give ads that have higher bids attached to them top billing when it comes to showing the ads.
When bids are set and the ad is run it is essential to have careful monitoring on the activities of the ad, as well as any change in the usefulness of the keyword .
Once an ad or a keyword becomes unpopular (and therefore unprofitable) a new advertising campaign must be launched.
No, you are not going to make hundreds of dollars a day doing virtually nothing through the use of Google AdWords; you are, however, going to gain a fine appreciation for the art of multi-tasking and micro-management and, if you are among the truly fortunate, being able to see your business flourish.
